It can only be described as a comedy of errors: the mayor giving permission for selling in the Stabtoek Bazaar within a certain timeframe, while the TC reported there cannot be business as usual in the Bazaar’ (News Source April 22), until the destroyed wharf is completely dismantled and debris cleared. And all because of poor communication.
As one vendor said from the inception (not interception) there was poor communication on the part of the Municipality.
Did the Mayor not know of the continued work at the wharf area during the day? Was the information that vendors can sell at the Bazaar passed on to the TC? The TC, from the report, met with some of the vendors, but most, it seems were not aware of her decision and certainly not the mayor, at the time or afterwards. He only became aware, it seems at the statutory meeting. Another communication lapse.
So if proper communication had occurred all around, the vendors would not be up in arms.
It has to be basic: if you do not communicate and share pertinent information then chaos will ensue with fingers pointing your way.
Sincerely,
Shamshun Mohamed
